For the past two days I have this idea lingering in my head. Ann told me about a few men she sees when she’s going to receive her Vitamin C drips. The have all different kinds of cancers and at different stages. Some of them have huge successes by having their diet and lifestyle adjusted and going for regular intravenously administered treatments. A few of them chose to not undergo any conventional treatment – with remarkable developments. Tumors shrunk significantly or disappeared comple...

I just received a very nice email from another kidney cancer warrior and therefore came across with her website and blog “The accidental tourist”. Her name is Kristy Richardson and here is the link to her blog:

Kristy started her battle two years ago, therefore gained a lot of knowledge which she decided to share with us. You should definitely stop by there and read her story. She writes from the heart and has a lot of knowledge.

Thanks f...

I’m really confused now. We went to see one of my wife’s Oncologists last Monday and filled him in on my recent kidney cancer diagnosis. Actually, before I go ahead, I got to give the guy a plug:

He’s a wealth of knowledge and a pioneer in the field of hormone imbalance related cancers, such as breast cancer. He therefore is an avid advocate of the concept that breast cancer is preventable and treatable by living a healthy life-style and eating the right things,...

My urologist called me today while I was actually out accompanying my wife for her PET-Scan. We went to the exact same location with the exact same staff. Anyway, the urologist left me a voicemail with the news:

The scan is clear, no signs of metastases anywhere. Secondly, another urine sample he took right out of my kidney while he performed the Cystoscopy Thursday last week, came back negative for malignant cell occurrence.

Yes, of course I am happy and quite relieved. After all, I n...

First things first: I went to my PET Scan last Tuesday at the New Jersey Institution of Radiology in Carlstadt, NJ, to get a better picture on my kidney cancer situation. The whole thing took about 2.5 hours. First, I had to change into a gown, pants and a robe. I was allowed to keep my underwear on, which I was tremendously grateful for. Then my nurse Eric drew some blood and checked for the glucose level, which turned out to be fine. No wonder, I was told to fast and to have water only sinc...

Tomorrow is my PET Scan. With a little bit of good luck, the cancer cells didn't make their way to my lungs and bones, yet. In that case I will try to schedule my surgery in order to remove my left kidney as soon as possible. It annoys me, more than anything else.

The pain I suffered from after my Cystoscopy, got gradually better over the past few days. I don't have to pop painkillers every four hours anymore, which is a good thing. I wonder whether they will remove the stent they put into my...

I just had my physical done today to get clearance for Thursday, since they will put me under anaesthesia for the Cystoscopy. Everything is okay, I'm good to go. What really amazed me: I also had bloodwork done as part of the physical, and everything across the board came back in tip-top shape, EVEN my kidney functions. And that's with a 6 Centimeter tumor lingering there in one of them. I wish there was such a thing as a blood-test for cancer.

I also try to train myself not to worry. Which is...

I have Kidney-Cancer.

On October 1st, 11:57 AM, my phone in my office rang. It was the urologist asking me how I was feeling. I told him, that I was okay, nothing special going on. He then told me, that the results of my CAT Scan came back and he reviewed the slides. There wasn't any signs of kidney stones - that's what we all thought it was, after I found blood in my urine  - however, there is a 6 Centimeter (2.5 inches) mass in one of my kidneys.

He then kept talking to me for another 3-5 m...
